For over two decades, Space and Light Digital has solidified its reputation as the premier fashion photography and video studio on the West Coast. Our commitment to excellence, cutting-edge technology, and a team of creative visionaries distinguish us in an industry that thrives on innovation and precision. Here, we delve into what sets Space and Light Digital apart and how we’ve consistently delivered unparalleled results.
Behind the Scenes of a Successful Brand Partnership: Space and Light Digital x Aviator Nation
Our collaboration with Aviator Nation, a brand synonymous with vibrant and high-energy fashion, showcases the essence of our studio’s capabilities. This partnership highlighted the seamless workflow, adaptive creativity, and technical expertise we bring to every project.
The Challenge
When a globally recognized apparel brand entrusted us with their overflow collection—the 2024 Summer Women’s Swimwear line—we knew this would test our mettle. The brief? Create premium digital content that matched Aviator Nation’s iconic look within a tight 48-hour turnaround. The trust they placed in Space and Light Digital was a testament to our proven reliability and skill.
Stage 1 Premium Production
Our behind-the-scenes process began in Stage 1 Premium, a studio equipped with advanced lighting setups that allowed us to replicate Aviator Nation’s distinctive glow. This stage became the heart of our operation, where our team of professional hair and makeup artists prepared models to reflect the brand’s sun-soaked, energetic vibe.
With cameras rolling, our senior photographer and creative director, Sebastian Taheri, guided the session. Every element—from model poses to lighting angles—was meticulously scrutinized to ensure the final results embodied Aviator Nation’s aesthetic. The shoot was captured on video, providing a rare glimpse into the dedication and artistry that go into each shot.

The Post-Production Triumph
Post-production was where the true challenge emerged. Aviator Nation’s swimwear, known for its vibrant and intricate fabrics, required expert handling to ensure colors remained authentic to the brand’s identity. Our retouching team leveraged advanced techniques to fine-tune hues and textures, meticulously matching samples to the real-life garments.
Skin tones were another critical aspect. To maintain the consistency Aviator Nation’s campaigns are known for, we adjusted every image with precision to achieve uniform, natural tans across the collection. Despite the challenges, our retouching team rose to the occasion and delivered flawless assets within 24 hours.
How It All Came Together
The project began with a straightforward 90-minute call that outlined the scope and expectations and exchanged creative directions . Our booking and creative teams sprang into action, mobilizing resources and aligning talent. The trust placed in us by Aviator Nation underscored our ability to handle high-pressure projects, showcasing our commitment to exceeding client expectations.
The Outcome
The results spoke for themselves. Aviator Nation received their images fully retouched and ready for immediate use across their e-commerce and marketing platforms. The seamless integration of our work with their existing content highlighted our expertise in color matching, lighting, and styling—an achievement that underscored our ability to produce content indistinguishable from their in-house productions.
This successful collaboration reaffirmed Space and Light Digital’s standing as a leader in fashion photography and video production. Achieving the impossible isn’t just part of what we do—it’s what defines us. We invite you to partner with us and experience firsthand why we’re the best in the business.
